Ron’s take on the new updates

Imagenomic has done a web site refresh and updated their products recently, so I thought I’d weigh in on the changes.

Noiseware gets a much needed visual appearance boost to match the more modern look of Portraiture. Functionally it appears to be mostly the same as far as the UI is concerned, but Imagenomic claims better noise reduction performance and results. From what I see the results are still the best in class as they always have been, so it’s still a great product that is a must for all photographers.
